POW's

[Davros]

Was watching Rambo 2 last night, which got me to thinking... are there still American POW's in Vietnam?

Wasn't there a case a few years ago where 2 Japanese soldiers were found, thinking the War was still waging on? They had been living in the jungle living off animals they had captured and water etc avoiding capture...

It wouldn't suprise me.

The entire tabloid press in this country seem to think WWII is still going on every time we play Germany at football.

There was a book published in the U.K called something like 'bring the boys home', written by a serious journalist from the US.
He did indeed find Americans on his search and his book include pictures of the emaciated, aged and bewildered veterans who had been kept prisoner in holes in the ground, old tunnels etc

As you can imagine the US government would be embarrassed by this so they called it a hoax.

See for yourself.
I've got a copy if anyones genuinely interested.
